Shock Therapy

Have you ever peered into a nearby mirror, or looked up at yourself while washing your hands? Have you ever wondered who on earth the creature was looking back at you? And as you scurry as far from the mirror as possible, you think 'do I really look that bad?'
Well the time has come my friends that the blog and I must revive ourselves. Not only for the sake of those who see us but... oh goodness I sound ridiculous! Come on, I just don't want to jump back every time I see my reflection!
So with that said.
It's make-over time!

Ideas will be welcomed with arms wide open, so feel free to suggest products, styles, haircuts, pictures.... whatever it takes! Bring it on!

Thanks, You Prayer Warriors

Wow you guys! You must really be praying hard for me! And I thank you!
As soon as I posted earlier, I got an email from the hubby saying he got his letter!
This is great news and we did what it said right away. [Which was responding to the letter with more blessed paperwork.] Now we just wait more for the next letter, hopefully the last. Interestingly enough though, I didn't get my copy of the letter... .
Oh wow. I never thought I'd be waiting on the mail. This is for sure interesting.

I just hope that he can be here for our 1st anniversary! It's coming up in just less than a month! I know it's high hopes, but I need to keep them high!
Keep praying with me guys! God can make this happen!

Back to the Apt

Here I am. Back to the apartment. Not home mind you, like most folks say. I just left home and now have to sit here for home to come to me.
The letter from the NVC has yet to arrive. This is what I find very odd. A letter traveling from New Hampshire to Texas shouldn't take more than a month. Maybe a week, if that.
God willing, it will arrive today. No tomorrow. Not Monday. TODAY!

Well now I'm off to buy some groceries while praying my heart out.

Upcoming Spring Break News

Spring Break is upon us.
Ok, well for all you up north never mind 'cause you had yours early. Us down south waited for the warm weather and will have a great hot, sun filled week!
Oh yes! I can't wait!
I don't have big travel plans or anything, but seeing my husband and not having homework/class will be AWESOME!

Do any of you commute for work or school? I do. I drive 30 minutes one way to school. I had a lovely surprise with which I was glad at first and then suddenly pissed off. I got an email last night telling me that the teacher was going to be leaving town and that there would be a sub. Fine. Get there, waiting... waiting.... he never showed. We weren't sure what to do. Technically you're aloud to leave if the teacher doesn't show 15-20 minutes after class is supposed to start. So we did. The dude never came. Yay, no class! But then I realized that I drove an hour for nothing.... wasted my gas....
Sorry. Not at all important but I just had to vent for a sec.

Anyways,....

OH! I have news about our papers! [Well, my husband's papers].
I got so impatient that I called the NVC and found out that you can enter your case number and find out what's going on. Apparently they sent our stuff (the next letter and instructions on where to go for the interview and visa) three weeks ago. Now, I was so excited the first time, that I called again after I calmed down so I could write everything down. But then I got to thinking... They said they sent me a copy of the letter and then another one. Why would it take three weeks for mail to get from New Hampshire to Texas? Well.... that's where my great news gets put on hold. I still haven't gotten the letter. Hopefully tomorrow it'll be sitting in my mailbox. Oh, that would be a great way to end a day of mid-terms and start welcoming in Spring Break!

So, keep praying people! God is good and my wait [for my hubby] is almost over!!!
Thank you so so so so much for your prayers!

Waiting

Well readers, here I am.
My house guests are gone and my husband still isn't here. So I'm back to being lonely. Weird, right?

My parents moved out of their house this week which was a big stress on my dad's mind. Well, they're out.
According to my husband, Max spent his first night outside. He's camping out at my mother-in-laws along with my husband. This is something big. Max is the biggest baby and hates to be alone. So for him to sleep alone, outside. Wow. Good job Max!

My week hasn't been too eventful so far. Class, class, and more classes.
Everyday I pray more. I have never prayed so hard about something. I have never not cried. So each day, when I get home... I pray even harder all the way to the mailbox. But each day so far,... nothing. Empty. Junk mail. Or bills. Boo.
I got my notice of approval... come on! This is horrible! IT MAKES MY HEART HURT! I don't want to be without him anymore!
